Something you feel is 100% beautiful, but yet the people you love most in life don't only miss the beauty, but skip over the entire emotional experience. Thoughts?

To the extent that the media is treating this as a horse story: Max Miller is not a some random candidate from Ohio. This is a picture of President Trump speaking at the wedding of Max Miller and Emily Moreno.
Seriously though this poll makes no sense. 100% of MAGA voters would support a candidate accused of sexual assault. That’s literally the definition of a MAGA voter.
Wild that they're STILL lifting sht from the first JP book, some of the best stuff, too: aviary in part 3 and sleeping trex in the lagoon in most recent one.
Would assume everyone knows it by now, but just in case "First the traitors, then the invaders" is an explicit reference to The Turner Diaries, where a white supremacist revolution overruns "The System" and kills all their enemy during the evocatively named "Day of the Rope".

Sunder Katwala (sundersays)@sundersays.bsky.social · last mo.X owner Elon Musk indicates he would prioritise political violence (assassination of pro-migration politicians is the common sense meaning) over violence against "invaders" (refugees, asylum seekers, maybe ethnic minorities generally) while endorsing call for violence (killing) against both groups
If SNL doesnt get Moynihan on to do this bit, what are we even doing...
Howard Mortman@howardmortman.bsky.social · 2w ago"Cool kids on the Internet. They're doing the cool kid chatter. Some of 'em might be the coastal elites, making fun of how I talk. But let's be real. They're making fun of Michigan. They're thinking they're better than us. Their jokes, their criticism, only make me fight harder." -- Haley Stevens
Pete Hegseth has killed more Americans in the last several months than domestic terrorists killed in all of last year. So Pete Hegseth is the greater threat to our nation. And so is giving more money to the wildly irresponsible Pentagon this glib TV chatterbox pretends to run.
Watching ICE agents literally run away from a Mount Laurel Starbucks without their coffee because the neighborhood completely rejected them is pure gold. South Jersey will make you unwelcome every single time you show your faces.

Michael Fanone's take on Lindsey Graham is one of the most powerful I've read:
Fractures Emerge Between GOP’s Pro-Pedophilia, Extremely Pro-Pedophilia Wings
He died as he lived: a walking corpse that would sell his soul, if he had one, clawing even an inch of power away from people that need it, anyway he could.
Kevin M. Kruse@kevinmkruse.bsky.social · last mo.Gov. Beshear should demand proof of life. If his state has lost a senator, its people deserve to know and deserve a replacement. The seat doesn‘t belong to the Republican Party.
The man in the front is holding a sign that reads: "THE FIRST BLOOD FOR AMERICAN INDEPENDENCE Was Shed By A Negro, CRISPUS ATTUCKS." this particular parade was the largest march held by Black Americans at the time. But what was the occasion? It wasn't Independence Day 🧵
I do think the facts matter in this instance. If he weren't so evil, they wouldn't. He's a venal liar who is responsible for 10s of thousands of people's deaths (and counting).
Scott Horton@robertscotthorton.bsky.social · last mo.Elon Musk is a South African who came to the US under a fraudulently secured student visa to study at Stanford (he never enrolled). Through further fraud, he secured a green card and then was naturalized as a US citizen. His US citizenship can be revoked. He also holds a Canadian passport.
"As Republican politicians cower in fear .. one incredibly brave woman stood up to the man who assaulted her. She did this with full knowledge that he would use every bit of firepower he could muster to destroy her. And she won." This is beautiful Definitely read it:
Aaron Rupar@atrupar.com · last mo."The verdict finding Trump sexually abused & defamed Carroll is now final. He's out of courts to shop this to, & he’ll get no more appeals. And since he had to prepay the judgment & deposit it w/the court — along w/interest! — she won’t have to wait for him to cut the check." — @lizdye.bsky.social
“If Democrats win, Congress will do its job again” is a wild message from the current Speaker of the House
Acyn@acyn.bsky.social · last mo.Johnson: If we lose the midterms, these Democrats will turn every committee of Congress into an investigative body, and they'll go after the president's family, the cabinet, his donors, friends, half of you in this room will be targeted. I run the protection program. We’ll take care of you.
I've love to tell you one day how the religious Right has hated public schools since desegregation, and that the pushing of homeschooling, school choice, vouchers, and (Christian) Bible teaching has been at the forefront of their racist plans. @kevinmkruse.bsky.social has a nice book on it
Phil Lewis@phillewis.bsky.social · last mo.Starting in 2030, all public school students in Texas will be required to read passages from the Bible in class
Congrats to SCOTUS for murdering Springfield, Ohio.
Greg Sargent@gregsargent.bsky.social · last mo.Awful: After SCOTUS ruling, Trump is free to deport thousands of Haitians from deep red Clark County, Ohio. It may now take a big economic hit. Oh, well. If you vote for the guys that lied in your faces so viciously about immigrants, this is what you get. New piece: newrepublic.com/article/2124...
There’s nothing wrong with Haitians! I’m getting sick of this state enforced bigotry & violence against them just like I’ve long been sick of the US sabotaging them at every turn with its imperialism. This is the world’s first Black republic! A proud free people you’d be honored to know some of.
In this era of unprecedented corruption, it is essential that we keep our terminology precise.
Here’s Trump lying about his murder of 100+ Iranian schoolgirls.
